All The News Anti-Palestinian Posters Will Not Read Or Discuss

Started what trouble? None of those Arab armies crossed a border into Israel.

The 1948 Palestine war[a] was fought in the territory of what had been, at the start of the war, British-ruled Mandatory Palestine.[14][15][16][17][18][19] During the war, the British withdrew from Palestine, Zionist forces conquered territory and established the State of Israel, and over 700,000 Palestinians fled or were expelled. It was the first war of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and the broader Arab–Israeli conflict.

The war had two main phases, the first being the 1947–1948 civil war, which began on 30 November 1947,[20] a day after the United Nations voted to adopt the Partition Plan for Palestine, which planned for the division of the territory into Jewish and Arab sovereign states. During this period the British still maintained a declining rule over Palestine and occasionally intervened in the violence.[21][22] Initially on the defensive, the Zionist forces switched to the offensive in April 1948.[23][24] In anticipation of an invasion by Arab armies,[25] they enacted Plan Dalet, an operation aimed at securing territory for the establishment of a Jewish state.[26]
